About Stefan Bajohr

Stefan is a member of the firm's Global Transactions group and advises clients on global reorganizations, M&A, general corporate and insolvency law related matters, commercial contracts and IP/IT with a particular focus on major cross-border reorganizations, carve-outs and post-merger integrations.

Due to his extensive work on major global reorganizations (in particular sellside carve-outs and post-merger integrations) he is well familiar with the typical legal, operational and practical transaction hurdles in more than 60 jurisdictions. This enables him to identify and mitigate risks at an early stage and to provide for an efficient organizational setup, management and smooth implementation of global projects (including by the use of legal tech). 

Stefan is fluent in German and English.
